Sending Packet Tag via TCP connection

[Sakshi]

Hello,

I am sending packet tag via TCP connection. Packet tag consist data-type of uint32_t. But packet tags are not received correctly in receiver side.

I tried tracing it. Till TcpSocketBase::Send function packets are maintaining same tag as it was send.

But while extracting it from buffer in function TcpSocketBase::Recv it is not received correctly.

Pl do reply asap.

Thank you,

Rgds,
Sakshi

TCP is a byte-stream protocol. So each packet that you generate from the application and you add the tag, is converted in a byte stream, and packets-tags are lost.

So, perhaps if you add a byte-tag instead of packet-tag, you will be able to see it on the receiver.
